BEFORE INSTALLATION
Read these instructions thoroughly before beginning work.
Please leave instructions for customers. These instruction contain maintenance
and warranty information.
If necessary, remove the existing toilet.
For your new TOTO toilet to fit correctly, the rough-in, the distance between the
finished wall to the center of the
closet flange, must be at least
12 inches for most models.
NOTE: Models with 10”
rough-in have model numbers
ending with “.10”, for example
C744EF.10.

IMPORTANT!
Due to the powerful performance of our Cyclone, G-Max, E-Max and Power Gravity
flushing systems, they are not specified for back-to-back installations. The only
means of installing these toilets in a back-to-back situation is when the toilet drain
connections incorporate a WYE fitting. Please contact your builder or contractor prior
to this installation.

1) Clean any debris out of the closet flange
and then install new mounting bolts
(not supplied) into the slots of the closet
flange (see Illustration 1). The head of the
bolt should be inserted into the slot with
its threads facing upward.
2) Carefully turn the toilet upside down
onto some padding. Firmly press a new
bowl wax ring (not supplied) onto the
circular recess around the toilet bowl’s
horn (see Illustration 2). Turn the toilet
upright and gently lower into position
over the closet flange. With toilet
properly aligned, press firmly on both
sides of toilet rim to set the bowl wax
ring (see Illustration 3).
CAUTION: Do not move the bowl after
the bowl wax ring is set. Thread the nuts
and tighten evenly until bowl is snug to
closet flange. Install the bolt caps (see
Illustration 3).
CAUTION: Do not over-tighten the nuts
as damage to the china bowl may result.

Points of Contact
NOTE: Three Points of Contact:
The toilet bowl has three points o
contact, which will actually contact the
bottom of the toilet tank when properly
installed. The location of these points
can be seen on the bowl at the tank
receiving area. The three points are front
left (1), front right (2), and back center
(3). Recall these three points during the
Toilet Tank installation.
3) Place the tank upside down onto some
padding. Inspect the smaller fill valve
nut and larger flush valve nut for a
secure connection (see Illustration 4).
Try to tighten the nuts with your hands.
If loose, tighten the nut hand tight and
an additional 1/4 turn for the smaller fill
valve nut and an additional 1/2 turn for
the larger flush valve nut.
Place the tank-to-bowl gasket onto the
flush valve nut. While pressing down,
spread the gasket over the nut until the
gasket touches the bottom of the tank.
A slight gap between the tank bottom
and the gasket is allowable.
4) Lay the tank down on its back. Place a
rubber washer onto a brass bolt (see
Illustration 5). Reach inside the tank
and position the bolt through one of
the holes in the bottom of the tank.
On the outside of the tank, place a
metal washer and nut onto the bolt.
Hold the bolt centered in the hole and
tighten the nut finger tight. Turn the nut
an additional 1/2 turn with a wrench.
Repeat this process for the remaining
hole in the tank.
Pick up the tank and carefully guide
the brass bolts to align the tank with
the bowl. Attach a metal washer and
nut to each bolt. Tighten the nuts finger
tight and inspect that the tank is level
(see Illustration 6). Once level, tighten
the bolts equally until the tank makes
THREE POINTS OF CONTACT with the
bowl.

5) Flush the water supply line for a few seconds
to remove any debris that may enter the
new fill valve. (For new home constructions
and/or additions, flush the water supply line
for more than a minute to help remove any
residual PVC adhesives, solder flux, and/ or
pipe sealants that were used for the new
plumbing.) Connect the water supply line to
the fill valve threads as seen at the bottom
of toilet tank (see Illustration 7). Tighten this
connection finger tight.
CAUTION: Avoid using a wrench to tighten
the connection as you may damage the
plastic threads and/or cause the fill valve to
rotate inside the tank.
NOTE: The water supply pressure should be
20 to 80 psi static.
6) No ballcock / fill valve adjustments are
needed. The water will automatically stop at
proper level. Flush the toilet several times.
Check flapper valve for proper operation.
Make sure that chain is not tangled and that
the flapper arm is in its proper position.
7) Install the toilet tank lid onto the toilet tank
top.
8) Install the toilet seat onto the toilet bowl
using the mounting hardware in the toilet
seat box. Place seat onto bowl and rotate
the hinge down. Position seat stoppers
under the seat hinge. Insert bolt into seat
hinge and through the toilet bowl. Install
plastic nut onto bolt from underneath.
Tighten the bolt securely. Install the seat
bolt caps.
NOTE: Tighten the seat bolt until the hinge is
secure. The seat and lid will have slight side
to side movement, which is normal. This
freedom of movement allows the seat to
SoftClose® without binding.

Water Level Adjustment
Depending on the manufacturing plant, you may have one of two of the following fill
valves:
Type A
Type B
Water Level
For Type A and C Fill Valve:
Refer to the water level (WL) setting marked
on the inner wall of the tank. Allow the wa-
ter to fill the tank. Turn the adjustment screw
clockwise in the (+) direction to increase the
water level height (see Illustration 1). Turn
the adjustment screw counter-clockwise in
the (-) direction to decrease the water level
height. Flush the toilet to verify the correct
water level. Adjust as necessary.
For Type B Fill Valve:
There are no water level adjustments. The
fill valve has been preset at the factory.

7) Connect water supply to fill valve shank and hand-tighten only.
NO TE: Do not overtighten. These are plastic parts. Never use pipe dope on any
water supply connection.
8) Attach refill tube to fill valve nipple and clip other end of refill tube to the overflow
pipe.
9) Turn water supply ON and check for leaks outside the tank.
NO TE: As water fills the tank, water is also directed into the overflow tube via the
refill tube. This additional flow of water is critical to refilling your toilet’s bowl.
Once the water stops filling the tank, some residual drops of water may drip
from the fill valve. This is NORMAL as these drops will subside.
Fill Valve Installation Procedure
1) Shut off the water supply to the toilet.
2) Flush toilet and remove remaining water from tank with a sponge.
3) Remove the water supply connection at the fill valve.
4) Remove old fill valve and use damp sponge to clean hole in tank.
5) Place new fill valve inside tank hole.
6) Thread mounting nut onto fill valve shank and tighten the nut.
NO TE: Do not over-tighten. Be sure to install fill valve in a position that does not
interfere with the trip lever operation.
